Pros

Great benefits and office perks Minimal to no cold calling -- all email and LinkedIn outreach Good product to sell, easy to demo and understand and customers see value Good chances for relatively fast promotions, if you are wanting to stay in sales

Cons

High pressure sales environment -- while quota is based on quarter, there will be scrutiny if you are not "pacing" even within weeks of quarter starting Market saturation across the best companies Employee tool stack is definitely not best-in-class (which was surprising to me) -- Salesloft, Outlook, Sales Navigator, Microsoft Dynamics CRM. No intelligence tools like ZoomInfo, so you are guessing emails (this is why there is essentially no cold calling)

Pros

Amazing perks and nice people. Perks: I was able to purchase new luggage with the help of some internal points for my performance. Unfortunately, I have not traveled since I left the company with the luggage. Travel also changed after I took the job and I was a global traveler.

Cons

I ended up quitting my job to look for a new job in 2024. The exit from the company was extremely poorly managed by my manager and the HR staff. I had a very difficult time networking after I left the job which is funny given that it is a social networking platform. I felt like there was still a presence from the company even after joining She Runs It, a third-party networking platform for women. I expected more from LinkedIn during my departure. I was unaware what impact working at this company could have on my career. They should really help their employees with their next role and applying as a lot of the applications occur on the platform. There was only an opportunity to interview and reach out to people that worked for LinkedIn at B2B, even though I have B2C experience. AI has really complicated the process as well with writing etc. since leaving.
